Linda, I am so sorry to hear of Sammy’s passing. When Sam called me I was totally shocked. Just know that he’s wrapped in the Lord’s arms & is in a paradise we can only imagine! Hope that brings you some comfort! You & your family are in our prayers! RIP Sammy!

Thank You for your kind thoughts, loosing my husband and Mother was horrible but loosing my son is like someone cut a piece of my soul out. We should never outlive our children it isn’t meant to be that way. But again, thank you for your kind thoughts.
